Description: In this stylish book, readers can find out what the strongest, deadliest, fiercest, cleverest, hottest, coldest, smelliest and weirdest things are. Ideal for children who want the information but are daunted by the sheer size and word count of other "Records" books. There are facts about all kinds of animals, amazing achievements by people around the world, the most impressive computers and robots, and even the most powerful forces in the known universe.
